The first opportunity came to him from the hand of Adolfo Marsillah at 1957 with the play The ridiculous beautiful  by Moliere. Thus begins the adventure of the artist who affirmed: «I never forget that theater belongs to a unimaginable strength, it is a mirror that you are planted in front of you so that you are ashamed and remove consciousness, the theater moves and brings back to consciousness, but it is impossible to transfer it to the television because it is always a miracle of complicity with the public, who knows that that will never happen again«.

Of his extensive theatrical activity we would highlight  The doll house, by Ibsen, described by critics as the best interpretation of his career.

From the theater he went to film and television, where he popularized Sole, the communist from Seven lifes. Paco León, remember as an honor to have received some colleja of the popular actress when he coincided with her in the recording of some chapter of Seven lifes y Aida: «She was an actress omnivore. His rings did not fall off from working in film, television or theater, and he always did. with a very high head. With her disappears a generation of interpreters who have always remained active until the end.

Receives a Goya as best supporting actress for  Seven French billiard tables  (2007), directed by Gracia Querejeta and with Maktub, the Union of Actors in 2012 recognized his performance with the award to the best actress of cinema distribution. From his extensive career, films like Blood Rhapsody, Goodbye Mimi Pompon, Land of All, Three of the Red Cross, I am seventeen years old, The freckle gang, The Nest and the Animated Forest. One of the most remarkable anecdotes of his career was having rejected a role in Pepi, Lucy and Boom by Pedro Almodóvar, because it seemed like a tacky movie. A wrong decision that would later lead the actress to confess, «When I saw her, I burst out laughing! That's when I realized how stupid it had been«.

With a certain irony and setback, she defined herself as  "THEUnsure, vain and something superb. Little coquette, only on stage and something fey and short«. The truth is that this woman gave off an attractive very special that was beyond makeup, skirts or heels.

Amparo never bit his tongue when it came to giving his opinion on political and social issues, even if it was necessary to bring out his irony in relation to a fellow professional, yes, with an art that few dominate and that made the aforementioned it would be difficult to be offended.

It is hard to say goodbye to this great actress and great woman, so we want to pay tribute to her by recalling a monologue where the most scathing and ironic Amparo Baró delights us with her good work.

Thank you for your professionalism, for your integrity and for the good times shared, Amparo.

Gais touch when they sing

EDITORIAL.- What the gais touch when they sing, or while they sing, or simply that they can not help but touch among them for the mere fact of being gais, is the conclusion that should have come the, let's say polemic to say nothing else, tertuliana of the program "Talk to them", Marta Torné.

In the first program that was broadcast in the 2015, it counted on the presence of the "Madrid gay men's choir"Who attended in order to make themselves known and in the process promote the concert that they plan for the Winners will be announced in March. But the members of the choir took an unexpected surprise on the set of Telecinco when Marta Torné he made one question more than unfortunate to its companion of set: "Are they going to play with each other while they sing?", To go on to question later the very existence of a gay choir.

Marta Torné in "they play while they sing".
Marta Torné in «They touch each other while they sing».

Recall that Torné already managed to warm up the atmosphere in the interview Patricia Yurena When I asked him when he had realized that he liked women. Before the face of stupor Patricia, was justified by adding, "Maybe I like women and I do not know," which generated the comment of Sandra Barneda "You are a 'heteroguay', to me this modernez ... "

In addition to its artistic character, the "Madrid gay men's choir", Was born with the aim of eradicate clichés linked to the homosexual collective, among others that of the promiscuity, and it is evident that the comment of Marta Torné besides not very respectfulResults homophobic in the redundancy in the topic. Its president and founder, Pablo Malavé Malavé, has declared "Certainly, comments like these feed what some may think of a homosexual man".

On the other hand, under the hashtag #mispadressongaysporquesetocan, some tweeters have responded with humor to the presenter. Of course, behind the irony lies a call to consistency and rigor in the small screen.

We hope that the "heteroguay" Marta Torné will find other ways to compete with Sandra Barneda in the "Talk to them" gathering, without needing to be brought to the attention of the LGTBI community.

I killed him by suffering a "gay panic." It was his fault, he was gay

NEWS.- The defense of the "Gay panic" has been used around the world by assassins to get acquitted of all their acts. Defense that has served and served on many occasions.

But what is this law?

This law dictates that any heterosexual person can suffer a real panic to discover that the person next to you belongs to the LGBTI community. This irrational panic can lead you to commit murder. But it's not his fault, not even a violent person, the blame is on the homosexual person. That with his "strange" tastes causes an unusual reaction in society. Therefore, any murder committed on another person belonging to the LGBTI community is not a murder, and should not be understood as such.

funeral_lgbt_gay_flickr_movilh_chile

Human rights activists have protested for a long time against this legal remedy as "deeply homophobic" Last month a bill passed by the state assembly, in California, proposed its elimination. Being currently eliminated.

This law has not been so alien to Spain as many would believe or would like, already in the 2009 a man, Jacobo Piñeiro, was absuelto by a popular jury of double murder, after he claimed that he burned the house of a gay couple due to "unbearable fear". Luckily the Spanish justice forced to repeat the trial with a new jury. And Piñeiro was found guilty sentenced to a penalty of 58 years of jail, penalty that was confirmed by the Supreme Court.

The case that has transcended the world, was the murder of American student Matthew Shepard, killed in October of 1998 just outside Laramie, in the state of Wyoming, by two men he had met in a bar. Aaron McKinney and Russel Henderson, at that time of only 21 years of age, claimed that they suffered "A moment of madness", when Matthew supposedly advanced towards them with "Sexual intentions". But due to media pressure, both were charged with murder and are currently serving a double penalty of consecutive life imprisonment.

One example, of which there is still talk, was the defense of Lawrence Reed, accused in March of 2013 of murder of Marco McMillian, First openly gay candidate to the City of Clarksdale, Mississippi.

Since then, the criminal justice section of the American Bar Association (American Bar Association) proposed to its members a series of measures against the use of this strategy. The proposal was unanimously approved in August of 2013 by the assembly of that organization, to which they are affiliated more from 400.000 lawyers, including recommending legislative measures like the one now passed in California.

Good news for the LGBTI community. But likewise, a piece of news that reminds us of how much remains to be done, when there are still courts around the world that accept the defense of "Gay panic", as a true defense.

That this term is used in many countries is, of course, a insult to human intelligence, to goodness and to society. Although we must celebrate that in California this defense has finally been abolished, considering it as "A nonsense", it is worrying to know that in many places said approach is legitimate.

The world society still has to mature, mature enough to include laws such as the one approved yesterday in the Parlament de Catalunya (Spain). A law that eradicates homophobia, but not only that it punishes her for violating the right to human freedom, but also obliges her to include, in education and in society, to treat sexual diversity as a totally normal fact.

A law that we hope will be imitated by all the regions and countries of the world.

Facebook apologizes. If you want to call yourself Sister Roma, your name is Sister Roma.

NEWS.- Many are the people who like to use a different name to which it puts in its identity document. Either because they like that name or because they feel identified for which it transmits. This reality is found mostly in the community of "drag queens", who they feel complete when they use a name chosen by them.

Facebook and its identity politics were at odds with this dream. Blocking accounts of those users who did not use their real name. Not only did they block their account, but they were told that if they wanted to use it again they should change the nickname by the name of his identity document, sent such document as proof.

This fact has altered the lives of many people, where Facebook and other networks have become part of their social relationships.

The controversial story began when two weeks ago, several "drag queens", many of them from San Francisco they protested publicly. These protests were led by the famous "drag queen" of San Francisco's nightlife, "Sister Roma" ("Sister Rome"), and that ensures that people only know it by this name that has been used for the last 27 years.

The LGBTI Community of the United States and Local Politicians they quickly supported this initiative forcing a meeting with those responsible for Facebook, which finally took place last September 17 at the headquarters of Menlo Park (California).

Facebook pledged to review the identity policy. And after several semanas of complete silence, has pronounced in these words:

“I want to apologize to the community of 'drag queens', 'drag kings', transgender people and other members of the LGBTI community for the predicament we have put them in dealing with their Facebook accounts over the last few weeks. We have understood how painful this has been for you. We owe them a better service and a better experience using Facebook, and we are going to improve our identity policy, so that all affected people can use Facebook again as they had been doing, "said the person in charge in a post on his Facebook page of the company's products, Chris Cox.

“The spirit of our policy is that everyone on Facebook uses the name you use in your real life. For Sister Rome, that is Sister Rome«, Assured the person in charge of products of Facebook.

A victory that goes beyond a name. Is a victory for individual choice of each person, to be whoever wants and wants to be, understood by one of the internet giants.

The 18 of September, the inaugural night of the art festival, the members faced a violent attack by police and thugs who tried to cancel the event, resulting in injured 16.

The one who directed the attempt to cancel the event was none other than the co-author of the ban "Homosexual propaganda" Vitoly Milonov which burst into the art gallery with other homophobic activists to try to ruin the festival. The thugs have been accused of having sprayed with green paint and gas to the participants, which required medical attention.

But this first and hard attack it did not cancel the programming and realization of the festival. Since the organizers managed to find new places and confuse the thugs and even the police.

If we incite so much hatred that means we have to remain open and clear about the information provided by the LGBTI collective. We must fight against the homophobic propaganda of the government. We will continue fighting and facing these pressures as long as it is physically possible. For freedom and LGBTI rights".

Under the rainbow flag, a union symbol

Flags are born to differentiate countries, their main objective is establish borders, dividing people by simple definitions of beliefs and situations. Unlike all the flags that exist in the world, the rainbow flag or the multicolored flag, is a flag of multi-dreams, thoughts, origins, sexual orientations, but above all unity. Is the only flag that represents diversity, equality and hope. It does not put barriers, but unites entire cities with a single concept: We are all different, and that makes us exactly the same. Equal before the laws and before the opportunities.

But how did it come about?

In its origins the cabbagepurple-purple-homosexual-violetor which represented the LGBTI community It was violet. The color born from the union of masculine and feminine (red and blue). It was undoubtedly the mixture of both that created the perfect color to represent the homosexual collective.

At a time when the fight for equality was being born, a discreet violet symbol showed the world that they "understood."

During the 1969 year various groups demonstrated in front of the newspaper offices The Examiner, in San Francisco, protesting the publications, almost daily of this, against the homosexuality. The newspaper workers, far from listening to them, threw violet paint on the protesters. Bañad @ s by this color, homosexual pride was born and they raised their hands leaving the mark, of freedom and diversity, on the walls of the building based in San Francisco.

This day, history in LGBTI history, was the birth of a symbol and a struggle that is still in force today.

However the first sign of the diversity of colors we find it in the first gay concentration of the USA during the funeral of the actress Judy Garland, in 1969, that I interpret Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz. At their funeral, they concentrated near 22.000 people, many of them belonging to the homosexual collective.

The hard blow that supposed the death of the actress, was reflected in the city of New York, which was surpassed by the great number of fans that in full persecution and lynching by homophobic citizens and the police, they all joined a voice singing the famous melody;  Somewhere, over the Rainbow (Somewhere over the rainbow), and screaming;  "Judy lives" o "Judy is here".

Origin of the LGBTI flag

One year later, the 28 of June of 1970, the first march of the Gay Pride would be realized in commemoration of the day in which the LGBTI community said enough and fought against homophobia. During the same period, a colored flag was born by the hippie movement of the 70s (1978th century) that used it to claim civil rights, of everyone alike. But it wasn't until XNUMX, eight years later, at the Gay & Lesbian Freedom Parade, that the rainbow flag made its mark. first presence as a homosexual symbol.

Gilbert Baker designed the gay flag for diversity, and was waved with pride, and for the first time, on June 25 of that same year, at the San Francisco Pride Festival.

  • Rose: the sexuality.
  • RED: the sensuality.
  • Orange: health.
  • Yellow: Sun.
  • Verde: nature.
  • BLUE: the art.
  • Indigo: harmony.
  • Purple: the spirit.
bandera-8-colores-lgbt

 The first gay flag was formed by 8 horizontal stripes of 8 different colors,
which symbolized all the principles defended by the homosexual movement.

The 27 of November the LGBTI flag again rises for the second time in the streets of San Francisco. This being the moment when its popularity increased, and was claimed as Emblem for gay collectives in all the parades and protest manifestations. With the great demand of the community, its creator Baker proposed to the manufacturers of the "Paramount Flag Company" the reproduction on a massive scale to have them ready for the 1979 parade. But the manufacturers found an inconvenience with the color pink, and that year the flag showed off in only 7 colors. One year later, due to the complexity of separating the ranges blue, and The cost of production, the indigo was completely eliminated, creating the Flag of 6 colors. Flag that can be seen today, in almost every corner of the world, Waving for equality and diversity.

Sexual abuse to "cure" homosexuality

NEWS.- A new case of Fraudulent therapy for supposedly "curing homosexuality", has come to light. But in this case, with the aggravating circumstance that, not only has it served to profit the fraudsters, but it also meant subjecting those treated by "therapists" to sexual abuse.

The case, which has been publicly denounced by Jeff White, a young American neighbor of the town of Walls, in Mississippi with the support of an organization fighting for LGTBI rights, goes back to 1996. At that time Jeff decided to come out of the closet before his family and they went to seek advice from a priest in his town. The parish priest recommended that they go to a religious association that operated in the region and that the young man undergo therapy there.

 

What the boy was subjected to for three years is repeated and brutal violations. The abusers alleged that they did so abruptly so that the pain and fear that they provoked would dissuade them from having anal sex and any kind of relationship with other men.

In a statement about the reason that has led him to denounce these events after 15 years, White has stated that “I have grown older and I have witnessed many other cases that are being harmed by the church and by attempts to change the homosexuality through brutal tactics, such as those used against me. Y I have realized that I must raise my voice against those who have hurt me".

Once again, together with international medical organizations, We denounce the physical damage and the psychological consequences that the "therapies to cure homosexuality" leave in those affected. And we encourage anyone who has knowledge of these practices to report them to the authority and public opinion.

Well, rectifying is wise and Sandra has done it and very well accompanied, by the way, nothing less than Jesus Vázquez. The subject that was discussed in the tertúlia was that of the professor of religion of a Canary Islands institute,  forced to abandon his classes by the insular bishopric, having knowledge of their sexual condition. In line with this news, Sandra said: "Many people, when the law is approved, tell you" But what else do you want? "And I always say" Do you know what happens? That a law protects us, but the problem is that there is silent discrimination" Because now, in many areas, maybe it's politically incorrect to point you out, but in the private you get a few glances, or ... That discrimination, that silent network is what you do not see, which people do not notice. Only those of us who are gay. That is very complicated, really very complicated. "

We do not know if his ultimate intention was to respond to those who asked for more transparency, but it is to be welcomed that he has not turned a deaf ear to the reproaches received.

Robby Gallaty: Barbarism and homophobic crime

EDITORIAL.- The line that separates the denunciation of sensationalism, the yellowing of the obligation to inform, is very fine and sometimes because it does not go through it carelessly, because it does not lead to tragedy, issues are overlooked that is absolutely necessary to deal with.

This is the case that concerns us this week in which, in parallel, there have been two events that invite reflection. On the one hand, the apology he has made Robby Gallaty, senior pastor of the Greater Brainerd Baptist Church in Tennessee on the death of homosexuals. Gallaty relies on the Old Testament to justify his arguments. He has literally said that “God would want to see homosexual people dead, because if a man sleeps with another man, just as if a woman sleeps with another woman, both will have committed an abomination and must die ”. On the other hand, the pastor sees in homosexual unions "the most lethal attack that exists against marriage and the family" and adds that if the LGTB groups achieve their objectives "they will ruin the family and they will have won." Speechless.

On the other hand we have learned that in California the trial is being held for the murder in May of the 2013 of a child of 8 years at the hands of his parents. The reason, as the brothers of the child have stated, is that he acted "like a homosexual". Apparently that made him worthy of a long ordeal before his death. Always according to his brothers, he received daily beatings, was forced to eat cat feces, rotten vegetables and vomiting, slept locked in a closet and with the aim of humiliating him, forced him to go dressed as a girl to school. Until one day, after a beating, the parents called the emergency room saying that the child had fallen receiving a heavy blow to the head. When he was examined by the health services, he had three broken ribs, a skull fracture, and objects stuck in his groin and lung. And I was not breathing anymore.

Perhaps Robby Gallaty thinks that God must be very pleased with the lesson received by this creature. Perhaps we cannot avoid the sordid family violence that takes refuge in silence to commit brutalities such as the one described. But, without any doubt, individuals like Pastor Robby Gallaty should be arrested and convicted of incitement to hatred, violence, murder and genocide. And if not, when in doubt, ask God.

Seven gais arrested in Egypt after attending a wedding

NEWS.- The Attorney General of Egypt Hisham Barakat, ordered last Friday, the preventive detention for four days of seven men accused of committing "acts contrary to public morality, crimes that incite debauchery, and of publish pictures that are shameful and contrary to public valuesTwo others would be under an arrest warrant.

The cause of persecution is the publication in the social networks of a video that, under the title "The first gay wedding in Egypt", shows a wedding ceremony between two men aboard a boat on the Nile. It seems that the police had managed to identify 9 from the 16 wedding attendants. In the video, the couple exchanges rings and they kiss and hug each other among the samples of joy from their friends. For all this the Public Ministry has described the celebration of "brazen and diabolic party" and pointed out that it was held last April.

During the arrest days, the seven young men have been subjected to scans and harsh medical examinations according to state news agency Mena.

Obviously it is an act of homophobia despite the fact that homosexuality is not explicitly prohibited in Egypt. In this case the accusations against homosexuals always apply for "debauchery", which is persecuted and that implies jail sentences and forced labor.

Precisely last April an Egyptian court sentenced to three to eight years in prison four men for having sex with men. The sentence stated that the conviction was justified by "deviant and immoral conduct".

Courses to "cure" homosexuality

NEWS.- Richard A. Cohen is an American writer, lecturer and expsicotherapist who is dedicated to touring the world giving courses in which he assures that he can change the sexual orientation of homosexuals and bisexuals who do not want to be. Under the title "Tools for accompaniment for people with same sex attraction", try to convince everyone that homosexuality is a disease and has a viable cure.

Cohen was expelled in perpetuity from the American Counseling Association when he was accused of violating his ethical and professional code in at least six points, including: "trying to satisfy their personal needs at the expense of clients, take advantage of trust and confidence". the emotional dependence of clients to request testimonials or the promotion of products in a deceptive manner. "

Cohen's sexual reorientation therapies have been condemned and criticized by associations of doctors, psychiatrists and psychologists. In the 2014 year, the American Psychological Association reported that: "These talks provoke, in addition to emotional and psychological damage, high probabilities of depression and suicidal tendencies. All current scientific evidence indicates that sexual orientation can not be changed. " Even the Official College of Psychologists of Madrid, says that "homosexuality is not a psychological disorder, so a psychological intervention is not justified. In summary, it has been proven that these therapies do not serve to change the homosexuality of a person and some of the sponsors themselves describe it as mockery and swindle.

In the month of June of this year, Cohen intended to give talks in a downtown hotel in Madrid, but his desire was frustrated by the refusal of the hotel chain to host the act to be knowledgeable about its content. Something similar happened in Mexico City, where the Council to Prevent and Eliminate Discrimination (CROPED) issued a complaint to prevent the seminars. But Richard Cohen this time has gotten his way and is now moving forward with therapies in the Mexican capital.

Famous out of the closet

Photos: Marina San José and Carlota Olcina, the couple starring in "Amar en Tiempos Revueltos"

EDITORIAL.- Just a week ago, we were commenting on Gayles.tv the intervention of Sandra Barneda in the "Talk to them" program. A lot is what has rained about it in these 7 days, a flood of criticism and criticism. The main reason is that, at no time during her speech, Sandra claimed responsibility as a lesbian. He spoke of the rights of "the people" and manifested himself against sexual "lobbies". Of all the read I highlight a phrase of José Luís Serrano, mathematician and writer, "I in the eighties also fell in love with people, but those people had cock" Lighter the water. And as for lobbies (a term dear to the right most recalcitrant to define activist groups for sexual freedoms), perhaps their struggle has had something to do with Sandra being able to express, even with euphemisms, her sexual condition in a TV show.

The fact is that people do not marginalize, marginalize, criticize, imprison or execute for being "person", but for being a gay, lesbian, transsexual, bisexual person, or what is the same, queer, bollera, travelo or which sails by motor and sail. The euphemisms, the smoke curtains, only serve to leave us, to leave them, to live quietly in the closet.

While heterosexuality remains the norm, it is important that celebrities, those who mark fashion, trends, public opinion, recognize and live normally their sexual condition. Why help us to be more visible, because it helps to normalize orientations that many still perceive as aberrations and because it makes those who remain locked in dark cabinets, feel less alone, less stigmatized.

The kick-off of the closet has sounded, for everyone, but especially for celebrities. Of course, if they leave other than to hide the origin of discrimination seeking social acceptance. For that they stay inside. No one forced her, but it was very simple, open her lips and say "I'm lesbian, period"

In Seville an image of Saint Lucia is venerated that has turned out to be a San Juan

NEWS.- The restoration of a carving of the sixteenth century which is worshiped as if it were Saint Lucia, exposes a Saint John the Evangelist. The Sevillian restorer Benjamín Domínguez and the historian Jesús Porres, discovered that the image had the colors that are proper to a carving of San Juan, red cloak and green garments, but with feminine features and brown hair, which apparently had been gold. The inquiries led them to the file of Notarial Protocols of Seville, where they found the documentation of the order made to the Salamanca sculptor Juan Bautista Vázquez El Viejo, and thus confirmed that the altarpiece of which the carving was part was for a San Juan.

Apparently, the change was made in the 30s of last century during one of the many restorations that the piece has undergone. The reason was the establishment of the ONCE headquarters in the Sweet Child Jesus chapel, where the carving was located. Lacking an image of Saint Lucia, who is the patron saint of the blind, they decided to reuse the only one they had at hand, which turned out to be that of Saint John.

The current restoration must remove the glitter layers that accumulate the carving to expose the original polychromy. For the final decision is left on the identity of the transvestite image, whether to respect the current cult as St. Lucia or to retrieve the original as St. John.

If it is that since Rouco Varela is not in charge, until the saints come out of the closet!

Love in the censored old age

EDITORIAL.- Apparently the movies that deal with love from a certain age are inadequate for minors, especially if the love relationship is given between two men. To that conclusion have arrived the very illustrious and very homófobos members of the Motion Pictures Association of America (MPAA), that is to say, the association that groups to 6 majors cinematographic films of Hollywood, that among other functions, is in charge of establishing the famous rating by age of films.

If a film contains extreme violence, explicit sex or indications on how to get high or traffic with narcotics, it is classified with an "R" that indicates that it is not recommended for children under 17 years.

The movie we are referring to is "Love is strange" and it deals with the consequences that they face two men who after 39 years of relationship choose to marry. The film contains two innocent scenes where the two protagonists are dressed in bed. Point. Neither violence, nor sex, nor drugs, nor rock and roll. And it has been cataloged with an "R". Material reserved for adults, an arbitrary way to run dense veils of censorship on a subject that is, at best, ungrateful.

Question of criteria, to some they seem obsceneor have guns at home and two other gentle old men chatting amicably in bed. Yes, two gentle elderly Gais.

Murdered 6 members of the LGTBI community in Uganda

The repeal of the "anti-gay law" in Uganda has unleashed the fury of the most conservative and homophobic sectors of the Ugandan society.

As expressed in a recent press release two organizations of LGTBI activists, 9 last August 6 individuals, 3 gais, 2 transsexuals and a lesbian, were brutally attacked by a group of fanatics. The victims were besieged and received countless blows and stones that caused them death. Apparently one of them survived the stoning and was burned alive using kerosene-paraffin.

According to the same sources, what would have unleashed the fury of the attackers was the fact that a group of some 200 people celebrated the annulment by the Constitutional Court of the aforementioned anti-gay law on the Entebbe beach.

The international community should react to the atrocity of sectors of the Ugandan people taking justice into their own hands while the local authorities remain silent about it.

Given the serious situation of siege that is being lived, members of LGTBI collectives from Uganda seek refuge in neighboring countries.
